Chapter 65

"My lord, the rock candy in our sweet food shop is almost sold out, do you think it will be restocked?"

"What? Didn't you just make up a hundred catties a while ago, and it sold out so quickly?"

Early in the morning, Uncle Li reported good news to him.

"Isn't it coming to the Qiqiao Festival? The girls and daughters-in-law in the city are all starting to prepare snacks to respect the Qiaoxian. There are also various gift-giving parties that need icing." Uncle Li explained.

"Qiqiao Festival, respect for Qiaoxian?"

Lu Zheng blinked, China's Qiqiao Festival is actually the Qixi Festival, which commemorates the Cowherd and Weaver Girl, which symbolizes love. What happened to the Qiqiao Festival in Dajing Dynasty?

Is there also the legend of Cowherd and Weaver Girl?
"That's right!" Uncle Li nodded, "My lord, you've forgotten about your life, and it will be the Qiqiao Festival in three days' time."

Speaking of this, Uncle Li leaned over meanly, "The Qiqiao Festival is also the day when the big girls give gifts to their sweethearts, and if the man is also interested, he will return the gift.

I guess Miss Liu's sachet is already ready, son, don't forget to prepare a gift when the time comes! "

Lu Zheng smiled stiffly, and said tentatively, "Then what gift do you think I should return?"

"Anything is fine, copper hairpins and jade bracelets are also fine, and wooden combs and rouge are also fine. It all depends on one's intentions. Some scholars are ashamed, and they will write a poem or give them pictures, and so on."

"I see, I know."

Lu Zheng nodded, and patted Uncle Li on the shoulder, "Not bad, not bad, if you encounter this kind of thing again in the future, remember to remind me!"

"That's for sure!" Uncle Li replied with a smile. He hoped that the future hostess would be easy to talk to, and Liu Qingyan would be fine.

"Approve your usual money, go make another suit of clothes for Aunt Liu, and buy two jewelry."

Li Bo waved his hands again and again, "No, no, we have eaten and drank well in the past two months, and our life is much better than before. We are at home on weekdays, and my mother-in-law is over 50, so there is no need for new clothes and jewelry. "

"Take it, I know that Aunt Liu will go to chat with the neighbors when she's free, dress decently, and don't embarrass me."

"Hey!" Uncle Li nodded heavily, saw Lu Zheng waved his hand, and retreated to the front yard.

"I really didn't expect that rock candy would sell so fast. Fortunately, I was prepared."

Lu Zheng traveled through modern times, and took out a large cardboard box from another room that was used as a warehouse, which contained a whole hundred catties of rock sugar.

Last time, he thought it was troublesome, so he ordered [-] catties in one go, and kept the remaining [-] catties in the guest bedroom warehouse.

Then, Lu Zheng took out another sack, and the next step was the mechanical action.

Unpack, dump, throw away the package...

Let Uncle Li push a cart, and Lu Zheng is going to deliver the hundred catties of sugar to the store with Uncle Li.

"By the way, go and send a catty to the Liu family first."

"No need, son, I sent it to the Liu family the day before yesterday, so I said it was your order."

Lu Zheng was dumbfounded, Li Bo is really talented, this assist deserves five stars!
……

From Anfang, Sweet Food House.

Not to mention, there was really less than ten catties of sugar left in the store.

One tael and fifty cash, these two hundred catties of sugar brought Lu Zheng a whole hundred taels of income.

What a huge profit!
"Okay, you go back first, I'll take a stroll." Lu Zheng waved to Uncle Li.

Uncle Li pushed the cart and left, while Shitou and Ma San continued to greet the guests.

Lu Zheng stayed in the store to look around, and found that everything was as usual, so he walked away leisurely with his hands behind his back.

Qi Qiao Festival.

Lu Zheng walked in Cong'an Square, followed a few children, and also learned about the origin of this festival from others.

It is said that there is a fairy in the sky who is best at knitting and embroidery. The gods in the sky are proud to wear the clothes woven by this fairy.

Later, the fairy saw that the human beings on the ground were not fully clothed, so she passed down the method of raising silkworms and drawing silk, and weaving and weaving.

From then on, people began to worship Qiaoxian every year, and women wanted to improve their skills, and it was also a day to show their works.

As for who to show the work to?

Needless to say?
Of course it's my sweetheart!
Therefore, gradually, Qiqiao Festival added another layer of love between men and women.

Women give men clothes, handkerchiefs, sachets, etc. woven by themselves, and if men are also interested in women, they will give gifts in return.

In addition, women will also have parties, outings, and meals, so in addition to knitwear, dim sum skills are also included in the competition.

What a great day to sell icing.

May every day be a begging day.

Lu Zheng walked all the way, thinking about what he should buy for Liu Qingyan.

The gift must be a gift, the girls are so obvious, can I refuse because of the relationship between Lin Wan and Shen Ying?
How much that hurts the girl's heart!
It's not that I want to be a scumbag, it's just that I'm too soft-hearted, with such a personality, it's God's will, so what can I do!
Lu Zheng shook his head and sighed, and when he looked up, he found himself in front of a shop selling rouge and gouache.

"My lord, the rouge and makeup powder in the store are all high-grade, as well as the eyebrow pencil and forehead yellow. Come in and have a look, there must be something you like!" The clerk at the door of the store solicited business.

Lu Zheng shook his head, "Thank you, no need, the girl I like comes out of hibiscus in clear water, it can be carved naturally, there is no need to apply these vulgar powders."

As soon as the words were finished, the eyes of the woman who just walked out of the rouge shop lit up.

At the same time, another titter came from behind Lu Zheng.

"Hee hee, sister, is Brother Lu talking about you?"

Lu Zheng: (⊙o⊙)
Turning around in embarrassment, I saw Liu Qingyan and the two sisters were less than five steps away from me, and they seemed to be going up to say hello to me?

Liu Qingyan's face was so red, she almost didn't dare to look at Lu Zheng, she just nodded casually, pulled Liu Qingquan into the crowd.

Lu Zheng smacked his lips, did he unintentionally take a ruthless shot?
I'm a fucking genius!
The scum is so moist and silent!
Sister Liu Qingyan retreated, and the woman who had just come out came to Lu Zheng's side.

"Young master is good at poetry. Is that girl just now the lotus that you mentioned? It really deserves to be a natural sentence."

The charming voice penetrated into Lu Zheng's ears, and then Lu Zheng looked at the woman in front of him.

Wearing a slim purple red misty cloud satin skirt, matched with a silver phoenix tail hairpin, her eyebrows are like black, her eyes are like smoke, and her lips are full of rouge.

"Uh, hello girl!"

Lu Zheng nodded, blinked, and then walked away without hesitation.

Lu Zheng can guarantee that Liu Qingyan must be watching not far away, and he can't lose the favorability he just raised.

The corner of the woman's lips raised, she saw that Lu Zheng had turned into a jewelry shop, so she swayed her willow waist like a snake, her feet moved lightly, and followed Lu Zheng into it.

……

"Sister! That female goblin followed her in, what should I do!"

"Will you curse?" Liu Qingyan reached out and tapped Liu Qingquan's forehead, and said angrily, "Then what should I do! Do you want me to follow in?"

Liu Qingquan thought for a while, "Should I go in?"

Liu Qingyan grabbed Liu Qingquan's ear, turned around and left, "I believe in Lu Lang, don't make trouble for me!"

"Sister, it hurts!"

 Thanks for the 08 rewards from fellow Taoist [-]a
